SNOW! But It's the Sunny South

Welcome Through My Back Door, where there is snow outside. I do have the coffee on so come on in and have a cup. We haven't had a good visit in a while and I am ready for company. NOT!!!This is what you would see if you came Through My Back Door right now.

Not a pretty sight. I have taken all my decorations down and all the faux trees and greenery, as well as some santas have landed in the eating area. It is a true mess. I am waiting on my grandson to help carry them to the barn to store. The rest of the house is fine, but not at all welcoming when you come in the back door. Here is what you would see if you were coming up my driveway.

 Do you see what I mean? This isn't supposed to happen in East Tn, and it's the second snow and we had an ice storm!!!!! Oh well I have to admit it was wonderful waking up to a White Christmas. It is pretty, but enough is enough and we are only five days into winter.
I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas. We certainly did Through My Back Door. We had lots of food and everyone was here except my granddaughter Beth and her husband Ryan. They are doing their residencies in Springfield, Il and both had to work Christmas Day. I told Beth to be extra sweet to her patients that day, that they wanted to be home too. She assured me she would, and I know she was, because she is very sweet all the time. We will have Christmas with them New Years eve.
Here are a few of the people who came Through My Back Door Christmas night. There are a lot of us now and my house is small and sometimes it get a bit loud and chaotic but we have so much fun. One grandson got a guitar and my granddaughters boy friend a drum, so see what I mean?

This baby Mollie Ann and her daddy Clay. She truly is a gift this year.

That is her mommy,her mommys brother Curt, (who is going to get me for this picture) and her cousin Seth. We did not take a lot of posed pictures this year and I didn't get many snapshots, on my camera at least.
This is my beautiful d-i-l Renda with Seth. Seth does Shakespeare and interned in Minn this summer. That is Olivia's head and her boyfriend Will.

These are my two sons. The oldest, Doug, comes every year and helps do
the cooking. The other is Dodd and he is Renda's husband. don't know where Deb was. Oh well! lol(Dodd is going a little heavy with the salt shaker.)

Well that gives you a little idea of  what went on Through My Back Door on Christmas. We have so much fun when we all get together.I'll leave you with a picture of the light of my life, who had been up since 5:30 that morning and had been two other places before he got here. It was okay he wasn't a happy camper.lol

I really appreciate all the comments on my previous blog, about the Mirror. You know I have discovered that here in blogland we all love God and family first, then decorating. I am honored to be part of the blogging world and for all the new friends I have made. Your comments are appreciated, I read everyone, and to everyone who reads this blog I say  Thank You from the bottom of my heart. I hope you will continue Coming Through My Back Door  where life is good.
